Abstrakt: Although several agents showed some clinical activity in patients with recurrent thymoma, there is no standard treatment option. Here, we report a late relapse thymoma and pure red cell aplasia case, responsive to everolimus with over 5 years of clinical benefit following multiple lines of treatment. Everolimus controlled the rapidly progressive disease in our patient without significant toxicity.
